Gregory L.Gregory Lee: The food is excellent here. Best fusion restaurant I've ever been to. Try the Green Tea Panna Cotta and the sticky rice topped with passion fruit ice cream (the latter was special) for dessert.

Nik A.Nik Andresen: Sticky rice was yummy and only 3 bucks. Summer special gets you $2 draft sapporos! Soups are f**king ginormous

David G.David Greenberger: One of the best lunch deals in Midtown (even on weekends). Go for the Pho Bo ($8) to heat you up on a cold day. Ask for extra noodles and make it two meals.
